Hi Claire
I have a problem uploading I think I will ask someone from TPG to do it for me- The sides to mine are alot higher so that Keya cannot fall over and I have closed the top off with perspex to stop her climbing up and over. Hopefully one of the TPG will come on soon and give their kind offer? and it will give you an idea of what I mean. sorry TPG

Oh wow, I love the second level.  As Jane says just need to make sure they cant fall off the ramp and cant poke their heads or see out of the bars, put some thin wood or something around the upper level. Great idea and well doneClick and drag me down to the editor

Hi Claire
How rude of me, I didn't say how nice the ramp looked, it is very impressive. These husbands are proving to be very useful don't you think?

Hi
Thanks Viv...
Claire, on the ramp we cut grooves out to stop her sliding down, and I have since put substrate in the upper part. It is really funny to watch, because keya goes up to bed everynight into her bedroom, I put lots of strips of paper in there, and at night I just put a little blanket over the top to black it out and stop draughts...  first thing in the morning I put her lamp on and she comes to get a warm up, has a good yawn, then we are ready for the bath and then food, am I sad??????
Good luck with yours
Jane
